I bought this on a whim one day when it was on sale thinking I would really like to find something that works but is still clean + healthy for my skin. I started to use this stick exclusively, and was blown away with the results. I kept my old brand of deodorant stick on hand for a while just in case I would have an urgent need for it again, but after a few weeks of it just sitting in my dresser unused, I threw it away. I have now used this mineral salt stick for several months, and there has only been a day or two that I noticed any odor by the end of the day. Thank you HH Science! This product is amazing.
